My choice:  "I chose the College of Liberal Arts because I wanted a unique education that provided me with all the benefits of a large research institution, such as research opportunities and a multitude of interesting classes, but also the benefits of a tight-knit community, in which I personalized my experience through daily individualized encounters with my professors.

Your choice:  "I would encourage other students to choose the College of Liberal Arts for, first and foremost, the faculty members, who are incredibly dedicated to their students' academics, career aspirations, and lives. The faculty members make the College a wonderful place to grow and learn for one's university experience.  My Liberal Arts education helped my path to law school by allowing me to shape my educational experience, and actively seek out those courses, professors, and experiences that would sharpen my interpersonal, writing, and research skills."
